Great post. In some markets I am in, I noticed Bing lays some big emphasis on content although not many incoming links as far as rankings are concerned. There is an interesting site which you can check the results from Google and Bing side by side. It’s at bingandgoogle.com

I believe Bing is a search engine to watch in the future. It will be interesting to know how much search share it can take from Google after the massive million dollar advertising made by the software giant online and on tv.

But I think getting a large majority of people to change their Google’s habit can still be a difficult task.

As everything takes a little while to get accepted by the masses, even Bing will take some time to get accepted as Google replacement.
Bing has got serous potential to compete with Google.

I live the aesthetics of it, although it seems to bring up lesser quality sites in search results.

I think Bing is great and in some search terms even better than Google. Keeping in mind that its only 3 weeks old I think its a tough challenge for Google with huge positive response from almost everyone. And with feature like Twitter in search results Microsoft is scaring Google and building a better brand for long term.

Interesting thing to see would be What improvements Microsoft will make in Bing in upcoming months, do they have some more tricks to hurt Google?

Yeah, I agree with you, but Bing is still a HUGE improvement over the old Live.

I think time has been telling on Bing, the SERPS have shown quite a few of the old cracks which Live had.

On the plus side though, I love the interface it uses, the little expand bit on the right of each result in massively helpful in making the decision to click through or not and I love the way in which the image search interface handles.
